Baptism Pics

In March, Avie Jo was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We took pictures in her baptism dress on a sunny but cold day in February. She was a willing participant...for about an hour. I don't blame her, it was pretty cold!
I love this beautiful girl and love the decision she made.

Catching Up

Wow, has the time flown since we've been back in the States. I haven't decided whether or not to keep my blog going but for now, here we go.
We had beautiful weather right through October so that meant outdoor activities like golf! Well, mostly yard work, but there was one day for golf!
Rayce and Avie Jo for Halloween; the Box Troll and Movie Star. Rayce claims it was the best Halloween to date, no pressure for next year.
We got new cabinets and counter tops. It may not look like much but compared to what was there before...whoa.
For Thanksgiving we went to Southern Utah, for some amazing weather and company!
We hiked instead of shopped the day after Thanksgiving and explored some old mines.
Old cemetery.
My Love and I.
Cousins.
What a great couple of months, we are so excited for what's to come.

Fall Scenery

Because our house is a renovation nightmare right now and has been since we moved in, (a post for another time), Dan and I have taken many a Sunday drive to enjoy our outdoor surroundings and to get away from the clutter and craziness. Here are some pics from a Sunday drive from a few weeks back, when the weather was still not too cold, and the leaves in their prime.
Nothing better than blue skies and gold leaves.
It's hard to not turn off on every dirt road and explore.
Maybe soon I'll be posting before and after pictures of our house, it really is coming along, until then, leaves it is.

Fall Family Pictures

Our area is stunning in the fall, STUNNING! How could we not go take family pictures? It's been way too long so yesterday after church we found our perfect spot for family pictures. Now, I'm no professional but the one photographer I tried to call never called me back so I decided I would just give it a try myself. We've done this many a times before and although it's a pain in the rear to run back and forth into the pictures...it's free. Maybe spring we'll get an actual photographer.
Okay, dog is not cooperating and camera is slightly tilted. Hmmmmm.
Okay, I eventually figured out my camera was tilted.
I love this sweet family of mine!
